This credit was marked as Not Pursuing so Reporting Fields will not be displayed.

Lakehead has not pursued any form of Green Building Council sustainability certification on any of it's buildings older than 5 years old. It has been noted that to bring many Thunder Bay campus buildings up to LEED standards, significant asbestos abatement would need to be performed bringing renovations costs above the value of some buildings.

Lakehead has however committed to building all new buildings to LEED standards as is noted in Lakehead's Sustainable Building Policy found here: https://www.lakeheadu.ca/faculty-and-staff/policies/property/sustainable-building-policy.
